The Monty Python Channel on YouTube

Thu, 20 Nov 2008 07:13:25 -0600

www.youtube.com/MontyPython has a large collection of Monty Python clips for free. What's the catch? Links to buy their DVDs at Amazon, and lots of belly laughs, of course. [/.]

For 3 years you YouTubers have been ripping us off, taking tens of thousands of our videos and putting them on YouTube. Now the tables are turned. It's time for us to take matters into our own hands.

We know who you are, we know where you live and we could come after you in ways too horrible to tell. But being the extraordinarily nice chaps we are, we've figured a better way to get our own back: We've launched our own Monty Python channel on YouTube.

No more of those crap quality videos you've been posting. We're giving you the real thing - HQ videos delivered straight from our vault.

What's more, we're taking our most viewed clips and uploading brand new HQ versions. And what's even more, we're letting you see absolutely everything for free. So there!

But we want something in return.

None of your driveling, mindless comments. Instead, we want you to click on the links, buy our movies & TV shows and soften our pain and disgust at being ripped off all these years.

Von NotHaus Starts 'Free Marijuana Church'

Wed, 19 Nov 2008 05:22:44 -0600

Rense.com - Bernard von NotHaus, the money architect of Liberty Dollar fame, has founded a new church, the Free Marijuana Church. It doesn't appear that he's using it to make money. Just using his First Amendment religious liberty to legally toke the sacramental herb. [gsc]

Sinfest - cartoon commentary on President-elect Obama being shown the Pentagon's giant robot, and learning that it's missing something he's been telling us is important. Hehe. [root]

Obama Win Causes Obsessive Supporters To Realize How Empty Their Lives Are

Fri, 07 Nov 2008 06:23:19 -0600

The Onion does it again with satire indistinguishable from real news. This video bemoans Obama supporters whose lives have no purpose now that their God has won the presidency. Hehe.

The newscaster, Andrea, talks to an expert, Jane:

Quote:

Andrea: Do you see an end to this, Jane?

Jane: Well, you know Andrea, I think a lot of people just hope these people will die.

Andrea: I think you're right.

Jane: You know, worst case scenario is that someone with evil intent seizes control of them.

Andrea: Sure.

Jane: They've proven their minds can be taken over by empty rhetoric.

Andrea: So if someone were to come up with a catch phrase as simple and vague as, "Yes we can..."

Jane: Oh, awful. They would have an entire army of extremely energetic, insufferable annoying, mindless pawns at their command.

Andrea: Ok. Well we're going to praying that that does not happen. Thank you, Jane.

Twinkies for Obama

Thu, 06 Nov 2008 07:00:03 -0600

I had an idea this morning, which I posted in the ever-growing Twinkies thread over at TMM. To welcome him to his new job in style, send a Twinkie to Obama.

Click on over to TwinkiesForObama.com, grab the address (currently to his Senate office, but I'll change it to the White House after January 20), send your Twinkie, and click the "I SENT ONE" button to count yours. You can donate there, too, via PayPal.

Is Barack Obama the Messiah?

Tue, 14 Oct 2008 01:55:30 -0500

obamamessiah.blogspot.com contains "evidence" that Barack Obama is the second coming of Christ. Hilarious. And chilling. There's even a store, selling "Messiah 2008" shirts and buttons.

Crisis Fixed: Ron Paul Saves Day

Wed, 08 Oct 2008 06:54:54 -0500

Warren Redlich at The Spoof - satire.

Quote:

Congressman Ron Paul singlehandedly resolved the global economic crisis Sunday morning. The former presidential candidate used a little-known clause in the Constitution to take over the government.

...

King Paul promptly dissolved the Federal Reserve, reinstated the gold standard, withdrew all troops from overseas, and ended the war on drugs. He also dissolved several federal agencies including the Departments of Commerce, Energy, Agriculture, Education, HUD, and pretty much everything else.

Request for Urgent Business Relationship

The LRC Blog has a copy of a phishing scam that's making the rounds. This one is signed by "Minister of Treasury Paulson". Hehe. Copied in its entirety below. [lew]

Quote:

DEAR AMERICAN:

I NEED TO ASK YOU TO SUPPORT AN URGENT SECRET BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP WITH A TRANSFER OF FUNDS OF GREAT MAGNITUDE.

I AM MINISTRY OF THE TREASURY OF THE REPUBLIC OF AMERICA. MY COUNTRY HAS HAD CRISIS THAT HAS CAUSED THE NEED FOR LARGE TRANSFER OF FUNDS OF 800 BILLION DOLLARS US. IF YOU WOULD ASSIST ME IN THIS TRANSFER, IT WOULD BE MOST PROFITABLE TO YOU.

I AM WORKING WITH MR. PHIL GRAM, LOBBYIST FOR UBS, WHO WILL BE MY REPLACEMENT AS MINISTRY OF THE TREASURY IN JANUARY. AS A SENATOR, YOU MAY KNOW HIM AS THE LEADER OF THE AMERICAN BANKING DEREGULATION MOVEMENT IN THE 1990S. THIS TRANSACTIN IS 100% SAFE.

THIS IS A MATTER OF GREAT URGENCY. WE NEED A BLANK CHECK. WE NEED THE FUNDS AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. WE CANNOT DIRECTLY TRANSFER THESE FUNDS IN THE NAMES OF OUR CLOSE FRIENDS BECAUSE WE ARE CONSTANTLY UNDER SURVEILLANCE. MY FAMILY LAWYER ADVISED ME THAT I SHOULD LOOK FOR A RELIABLE AND TRUSTWORTHY PERSON WHO WILL ACT AS A NEXT OF KIN SO THE FUNDS CAN BE TRANSFERRED.

PLEASE REPLY WITH ALL OF YOUR BANK ACCOUNT, IRA AND COLLEGE FUND ACCOUNT NUMBERS AND THOSE OF YOUR CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN TO WALLSTREETBAILOUT@TREASURY.GOV SO THAT WE MAY TRANSFER YOUR COMMISSION FOR THIS TRANSACTION. AFTER I RECEIVE THAT INFORMATION, I WILL RESPOND WITH DETAILED INFORMATION ABOUT SAFEGUARDS THAT WILL BE USED TO PROTECT THE FUNDS.

YOURS FAITHFULLY MINISTER OF TREASURY PAULSON

More Cowbell

Sat, 02 Aug 2008 09:18:37 -0500

I took my son to Guitar Center in Albany yesterday. While I had lunch with my buddies from my last job, he chose a new bass guitar. Nice one. I was looking around while waiting for him and found the anarchy cowbell pictured below. Just had to have it.

Zero Dollar Bill

Brian Romero has created a zero dollar bill, worth just as much as regular United States currency. Hilarious. Click on the image below for the full-size version (419K), which is here on Mr. Romero's site. [gracefulflavor]
